Margaret Mitchell, Peggy Marsh to her friends, dubbed her apartment, "The Dump." Surprisingly, it is in this shabby little apartment on the bottom floor that this petite, yet mighty woman wrote a big 'ol book that sold faster than a duck on a June bug!

It is here that the notorious Peggy Marsh wrote Gone With the Wind. A Pulitzer Prize followed.

The first-floor apartment of this turn-of-the-century Tudor Revival mansion has been converted into a museum and placed on the National Register of Historic Places.
